i hear they are amazingly comfortable and have great shock absorbtion. I have also heard they are slightly heavy/bulky. never ridden them myself tho

I am not doing the grabs because I am getting a thrill out of touching my ski-JP Auclair

i've heard mixed reviews on the skiis, but everybody with the boots sounds really satisfied. From what i've heard they are pretty stiff and the liner is super comfortable. They're super light and look damn sweet.

i work at a shop in ny. last year nordica put 3 of our guys in the beast boot(all which weigh over 180 and are kick ass skiers) 2 of them had to get them softened....i also hear the weird shaped tip pieces pop off and the ski/binding setup is real heavy

boots I have no idea about, but the ski is fricken heavy. at least compared to what I'm used to.

i'm hearing more and more bad stuff everytime i'm asking a question. Looks like its a no go on the skis but yes on the boots.

The skis look way tight - heaps better than any other
